Already did that in my local tree. I will post the new series as a
followup

This is what i have now

      hw/9pfs: Add V9fsfidmap in preparation for adding fd reclaim
      hw/9pfs: Add file descriptor reclaim support
      hw/9pfs: Use v9fs_do_close instead of close
      hw/9pfs: Implement syncfs
      hw/9pfs: Add open flag to fid
      hw/9pfs: Add directory reclaim support
